{Angel} - Child photographer, Ballito, Durban

I just had to post this....isn't she beautiful in her wings (it must be said, we couldn't get her out of the tutu and she went home in it... er... it's mine.... er... not that I wear it, of course, it's just a prop....)

I love this little girl... I have watched her grow in the last two years... and she gets more precious by the day.

{Birthday Girl} - Infant & Child Photographer, Ballito, Durban, KZN

Isn't this the most amazing way to spend your first birthday..... no jumping castles, or elaborate parties, no clowns or face painting... instead, an adventure to the seaside... the first time ever at the beach!! What wonderful wonderful memories for the whole family!! I love that for a birthday present... the best ever!!

Little D was just gorgeous beyond words, and smiley, and cute. I just couldn't get enough. And she comes from a good looking family... and smart to boot! Big things in store for this little angel!

An early morning beach shoot... on the hottest day of the year... and even I got soaked :-)

M&L, here's a sneak peak.... hope you like them.... I sure like taking them ;-)

{Cute with a Capital C} - Infant & Child Photographer, Ballito, South Africa

Look at the chubb on this guy... MAN, he is cute! And so very obliging... hardly gave one squeak of unhappiness.... and all I wanted to do was give him one serious cuddle... but I didn't want him to pick up my germs, so I couldn't!! Curse this sickness!!

E&M, a little sneak peak to wet your taste buds! There are lots more where that came from... but you'll have to just wait a bit.... Sorry!

You have a seriously cute little chap, and he was angelic to say the least! I hope you're proud :-)

I got a few "firsts" too: this is his first time sitting on his own on a chair....

I'm loving the sweet little smile:

{To stand or not to stand... still} - Child photographer, Ballito, Durban, KZN, South Africa

Goodness! To get my boys to stand still for longer than 1 second, is a near impossibility. Adding to that, the fact that they HATE having their pictures taking... adding to that their need to give me the silly, unnatural smiles, makes for taking decent shots of them basically impossible.

So two on one afternoon isn't bad going...

{Oh-so-gorgeous Lips} - Newborn, baby, infant and Child photographer

Really, is there anything or beautiful than a babies lips? Especially when they're full of pout like this chap. This little guys was so amenable, letting me man-handle him. And really, at only 7 days old, he was just a champion!

R&P, here's a very little sneak peak... but before I spend my whole night editting all these gorgeous pics, I am going to shut my computer down and get some shut eye... yours pics will be ready in due course ;-)

{Boys will be Boys} - Child Photographer KZN

These children of mine are just treasures... but they're so sick of having me stick a camera in their face, that they seldom bother to smile at me anymore. My little one (who's not so little), was really putting on a show for me... and I was happy to snap away!! He's a fighter.... need I say more?!

Photobucket

How is it they my husband and I are able to produce two beautiful... but COMPLETELY different children! Chalk and cheese!!

{Tummy Time} - Ballito, Maternity, Infant & Child Photographer

I just LOVE preggie shoots. It's such a privilege to carry a baby inside you (I should know, I've carried 3!!)... so capturing it on camera for me, is such an honour. I had so much fun with R&P... and I can't wait for this little fella to arrive... especially cos I'll be taking his first professional pics!! Yay for me!

Seriously... how special is this moment:
